I remember that show, specifically the episode where Kitty's mom had a new baby and then for lunch at school all she was given by her mom was a bottle of pop and a hunk of cheese, so she thought her mom didnt lover her any more.

It's from Singapore (I think) and uses a much lower voltage (ampage? whatever) than our sockets put out. I tried plugging it in with a socket converter and when I turned it on it looked like a nuclear reactor going critical. I'm just glad it didn't short out or something.
But yeah, I'd need a step-down converter to use it safely and last time I checked they cost way more than I'm willing to pay.
